Di, Lan

蓝帝

Lan Di serves as the main antagonist in both Shenmue and its sequel, Shenmue II. At the start of Shenmue, Lan Di murders Iwao Hazuki, Ryou's father. He holds Iwao responsible for the death of Sun Ming Zhao (his own father) and seizes a valuable stone mirror featuring a dragon engraving. This artifact, known as the Dragon Mirror, is part of a pair, the other half being the Phoenix Mirror. Ryou vows revenge and pursues Lan Di, yet he consistently finds himself just one step behind.
Lan Di ranks among the four top members of the Chinese criminal organization called the Chiyoumen. He is the master of a legendary Chinese martial art known as Tiger Swallow Style.
